Employee Injures Legs While Cleaning Gutters

On March 29, 2010 at approximately 2:00 p.m., #1 was seriously injured at the ER's jobsite located at 315 North Cottonwood Rd in Woodland CA. ER is a full service commercial and residential gutter fabrication, installation and maintenance provider. #1 was working on the maintenance department cleaning gutters on a two-story residence at the time of the accident. According to all accounts #1 was standing on an A-frame ladder (not folded open) placed on a partial first-story roof/awning over the front of the house, cleaning the second story gutter when the ladder became unstable. #1 attempted to jump free, landing on the first-story roof and rolling off to the concrete below, seriously injuring both legs. According to #1 and the ER they had an extension ladder that secures to the gutter/eve that he could have used (according to ER, should have used). #1 stated that he was the foreman on the job and made the decision to use the smaller ladder because it seemed easier.
